2011:05 Overview and Evaluation of the NESC Projects for Fracture Assessments of Nuclear Components
The Network for Evaluation of Structural Components (NESC) was started in 1993 and since then six different projects have been carried out. A seventh NESC-project is still in progress. The overall objective of these projects has been to study the reliability of the entire process of structural

2011:04 Evaluation of the Technical Basis for New Proposals of Fatigue Design of Nuclear Components
During the recent years fatigue analysis procedures for nuclear components have been investigated. The most common method so far has been the American code ASME III. The basis for the current design procedures in ASME III is quite old and has now been evaluated against modern data leading to

2010:42 Using the EPRI Risk-Informed ISI Methodology on Piping Systems in Forsmark 3
In the SSM regulation SSMFS 2008:13, it is stated that the selection of locations for inspection of mechanical components shall be based upon the risk for core damage or the risk of release of radioactive substances. Both qualitative and quantitative measures of the relative risk are allowed to

2009:27 Analysis Strategy for Fracture Assessment of Defects in Ductile Materials
SSM has supported research for investigating the role of secondary stresses when fracture assessments are performed for cracked structures made of ductile materials. There are evidences that indicate that some secondary stresses, such as weld residual stresses, are not as important as primary
